Vehicle has less than 50000 miles. Air conditioning system failed due to a faulty evaporator. Estimated repair cost $1100. Several dealership mechanics advised owner that this is a common complaint with Dodge vehicles and that the evaporator manufacturer has addressed the issue. What about all of us that have to pay for the defect" why did'nt Dodge recall this if it is a common problem"
